Answer:
36 pencils
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h and p represent the number of highlighters and the number of pencils, respectively.
Then h + p = 45, and h = 45 - p.
Tom paid a total of $30 for these supplies, with ($2/highligher)(h) + ($0.333/pencil) adding up to that amount.
substituting 45 - p for h in 2h + 0.333p = 30, we get:
2(45 - p) + 0.333p = 30, or
90 - 2p + 0.333p = 30
Combine the constants: 60 = 2p - 0.333p, or 60 = 1.667p
Then p = 60/1.667 = 35.9928, or 36.
Tom bought 36 pencils for $12, and 45-36, or 9, highlighters for $18, for a total purchase of $30. This shows that these calculations are correct.
Answer:
Length = 15 cm, width = 12 cm, Perimeter = 54 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the length and breadth of a rectangle is 5:4 and its area is 180 cm².
Length = 5x
Breadth = 4x
Area of rectagle,
A = bl
180 = 5x × 4x
180 = 20x²
x² = 9
x = 3
Length = 5x = 5(3) = 15 cm
Width = 4x = 4(3) = 12 cm
Perimeter of rectangel,
P = 2(l+b)
= 2(15+12)
= 54 cm
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer: 2 4/9
The decimal equivalent is 2.44
Step-by-step explanation:
It may help to convert the fractions to decimals. Divide the numerator by the denominator.
